It might be better that they should celebrate the anniversary. , of the - first day of the election. lie filially moved, that a meeting should take i►lace to celebrate and uphold those principles which they were then as sembled to sustain, on the 18th Jupe, the Anni sary of the Battle of kVaterloo. This motion being put to the vote, was unani mously carried with loud acclarnatious. The health of Lord Palmerstuu having been drank, with three times !Otte, 140 VALMEKSTON returned thanks in a very animated speech. He congratulated the meeting upon their numbers and their respectability, and incited them to perseverance in the cause which they had undertaken to support.. It was an idle caluniny flung out against the persons who admi nistered the Government of the country, that they were desirous to establish a despotism. Nothing could ,be more _absurd.—(Apphuse.)-11ad they trot the same interest in the preservation of the Constitution as any other Members of tire State if slavery was established would not Omir children be as liable to be afflicted by it as those of any other Britons ?—(Applause.)—lt was the interest, as it must be the desire of all good men, to preserve the Constitution as it was, and to secure it from the assaults of the populace.—(Applause.)—Ule could conceive that tyranny. in any shape, was most vexatious to a proud spirit ; but lie knew of no tyranny which %vas so oppres sive, so cruel, and so intollerant, as the tyranny Of an Mint iated rabble.—(Louti applause.)—They would iboist, indeed, of their love for - the Con stitution; but in the end they would trample upon it, for it was not a Constitution they w an t e d.— (Applause )—They would lead on their victims gradually at.fir,t, hoping that at each snecessive step they could communicate to them an increased velocity, until they would be driven to the brink front whence they might easily be hurled into the gulf below.—(Greet applause ) The health of the Reverend Mr. Bousfield was drank, and the Reverend Gentleman returned thanks. - The health of Mr. Dawson, the Solicitor, who bad conducted the Election on the part of Sir M. Maxwell, was proposed in the most flattering terms by the Noble Chairman, in a speech, in the course of which he warmly eulogized the zeal and ability displayed by Mr. Dawson, in the arrange. :Dents made under his immediate direction, and the manner in which the whole Election (under many disadvantages), had been conducted, to that re. omit, which, though not every thilig that could be - wished, was yet a triumph for the friends of the Consti►ution. Alr.DawsoN, in a neat and appropriate speech, detailed the circumstances tinder which the busi ness had commenced, and the ditticuties with which he had subsequently to contend, and re turned thanks for tie hobour the Noble Chair man and the Gentlemen present had conferred up on him by the approbation they bad been pleased to express of his conduct. Sir JOHN BERESFORD was then called to the chair, and the hat mony of the day was kept up with unabated sprit till midnight. THEATRICAL REGISTER, Prr Letst Ni ff ht.

A FRIEND OF MR. CANNING. Liverpool, 15th July, 18)8. *** We rejoice to find that the admirable speech in question has been so widely diffused, chiefly because it conveys important political truths that may enlighten the public in general, and also because, it will counteract the poisonous fnlly of those presumptuous remarks which Sir EMANCIS BURDETT attempted to make on ►t in a place of drunken and factious revelry. The peo ple are highly indebted to the friends of Mr. CAN NING fur their zeal on this occasion, as it proves their good sense, public spirit, and true patriotism. CORN-EXCHANGE, JULY 17 —Our Market con- Clines to be well supplied with all kinds of Grain, consequently the sales both in Wheat and Oats were dull, and 2s. per quarter lower ; Barley is dull at our last quoted prices ; ?ease and Beans support Monday's prices :, in other kinds of Grain there is no alteration. A Common Hall was yesterday held for t h e purpose of electing a Sheila in (he room of Jo- SEPH Topp. Esq. who .11.1 d refused to serve.

THE SU 4110LEMI QVh DICERE FALW3II AUDEAT ? LONI)ON FRIDAY, JULY 17, 1818. lVe received this morning the Paris Papers of Tuesday last. They maintain the same deter mined silence respecting the Conspiracy. We: have no room for extracts, and there is indeed very little in them worthy of particular notice.— The Duke of WELLINGTON bad a conference on Monday with the Duke de RICHELIEU, and tile English and Spanish Ambassadors.— From -Vienna it is mentioned, that at the (late of the last accounts the Emperor of AUSTRIA Was con tinuing his, journey along the frontiers of Bosnia. His Imperial MAJESTY had successively visited Glina, Tergovia, Koffainizza, &c. Tit es Emperor gave an audience in the open air, in the environs of Tergovia, to the Commandant of the Turkish Fortress of Novi, at the pressing solicitation of the latter. Field-Marshal the Prince de SCHWART.• ENBURG, General de KRUSEMARK, the Prussian Minister at Vienna, and several other diplomatic personages had arrived at Carlsbad. FIVE PER CENTS.

We have at length received a letter from our regular Correspondent in Paris'this day, referring to the recent Conspiracy, the proof of which is now placed beyond all controversy or doubt. We find that he still differs with us on the probable consequences of the removal of the Allied Tioops . from France, and as he must, of course, by his opportunities, his judgment, and his good sense, have better• means for forming his opinions on the subject tban we can possess, we shall, for the present, suspend our own sentiments, just observ ing that it is an experiment which ought not to he tried without full enquiry and deliberation, as it is one on which may depend the future peace and security of all Europe.—We also received this day a letter from another respectable Correspon dent in Paris, confirming the contents of the former. The latter assures us, that two Perso nages are mentioned as having been con cerned in this Conspiracy, whom we will not at present name, because we should excite not only surprize but horror in our Readers. The Duke de FITZ •JAmEs, the Duke de GUICHE, the Duke de FELTER, Count JULES de POLIGNAC, CHATEAU• BRIAND, VITROLLB3, VILLELa, CORBIERES, CA NUEL, DONADIEU, and others, however, are freely mentioned, some of whom have fled, and others are prisoners in their own houses. We will not affect a useless and injurious modesty in stating the rest of his letter, in which be assures us that " THE SUN is become so fashionable and so much the subject of conversation in Paris, that persons possessing the best information communicate to him important materials, and several of his friends in the very first ranks of Society afford him hints," which form subjects for some of his letters. We can solemnly assure our Readers that we have copied his own words. We rejoice at this information, not merely on account of the increasing success of our Paper, but because it enables us to communicate useful warnings to the French people, and, by means of our LITERARY REVIEW, to attract notice to the valuable productions of British Literature. We conceived it to he our duty to . inquire into the truth of the paragraph which appeared in The Morning Chronicle yesterday, stating that " seven teen Frenchmen, who have been some time resi dent in this country; were last week sent off un der the authority of the Mien Act, on .suspicion of being implicated in the late Conspiracy in Paris." We have Authority to say, that the whole a►ory is utterly destitute of foundation, tli:t 6;i individual having been sent Out of the country for several mouths hack. We were persuaded, before we ascertained the falsehood of this story, thitt if amy foreigners had been sent away, the Secretary of the Home • Department would hive had full reason for what he did, and would have acted only from a sense of imperative duty. The Chronicle this day attempfs to soften the matter by the fol lowing paragraph " It is now said, that the Frenchmen sent out of the ertun try were persons employed in coining false money to be dis tributed in France." But we repeat that no person has been lately sent AWay upon tl►e alleged grounds. The truth pro bably is, that The Chronicle is not to be charged with intended falsehood on this occasion, but I►as pcthaps been imposed upon by a hoax, as it is well known to be actuated by tl►e most credulous avidity whenever it receives matter of complaint against Government. The Supplementary Gazette, the chief substance of which we inserted yesterday, not withstanding the late hour of its publication, and the remainder of which we insert (Ilk day, gives a most gratify ing 'picture of our military force in India, which in heroism and discipline may rank with that of any other country. With ,such a force ; and with the liberal and judicious system ors which our Asiatic Possessions are conducted, we have little to fear from the treachery, injustice, or defection of any of the Nat ive Powers. The account of the Dinner which took place yesterday, in honour of Captain Sir MURRAY MAXWELL, will, we are sure, be highly gratify ing to the great body of the people, as it mani fests a zeal for td►e honour of the Country, as well as for the City of Westminster, which, we trust, will Dever on a' future occasion he suljected to the disgrace of a Mob-representative. How differ ent was the speech of Sir HU RRAY MAXWELL from that of Sir FRANCIS BURDETT ! The gallant Sai lor; in the native eloquence of good sense and an honest heart, displayed the genuine seutiments of loyalty and patriotism. The Baronet's was a flimsy tissue of declamatory violence, common place professions, hackneyed abuse, and jacubini cal sophistry. COBB ETT .-It has heen erroneously supposed that the arrival of Mrs.COBBETT and her offspring is preparatory to his own return to this Country, and that he only waits till the claim of tie Stamp Office is out of dote. It is proper therefore to observe, that that claim will never be out of date, but would immediately be put in force aga.nst him, if he ventured to return. TO CORRESPONDENTS.
